a Strange Freak of Nature.

LAPoRTE, May ia strange freak of
nature has just been developed at New
Carlisle, small place east Of here. For
about one year Mrs. Z. Hughes has been
i'll and her trouble has been the cause Of
much speculation among various pbysi-
Clans, who failed to arrive at any agreement
or solution of the case. DR.. Fahnestock,
of this city, visited her, and after careful
examination correctly diagnosed the case
as abdominal pregnancy. Shortly afterward
DR.. Fabnestock, assisted by two physicians
of New Carlisle, opened the abdomen and
successfully removed a child OF seven
months development, in a putrid and
partly disintegrated state. The case is one
of very rare occurrence, and 50 far as
known the first of the kind in Northern
Indiana. For five months after its death
the child lay in the strong capsule nature
had thrown around il "a capsule so strong
and tough that it creaked under the knife
when II was euD a mystery TO every
physician consulted, until DR.. Fahnestock's
visit The lady, who has been great
sufferer, is doing well, with every hope of
ultimately recovering.

New ALBANY, May 11.-Thomas Dooley
was taken from his bed early the other
morning by band OF masked men and
tied to tree in his yard and numerically
whipped. Dooley is a married man and
lives about five miles south of Corydon.
just before orders were given by the captain
of the gang to lay the lash to Dooley's bare
back he was informed that he was about
to be whipped for general cussedness. But
the true reason of the whipping he re-
ceived is supposed to be that he had de-
nounced the Knights Of the Switch, and
had accused q number of parties of belong
ing to the organization. Dooley's dose was
terrible one. He is 30 iii of it that 1t is
feared he will die.

The average negro cares only for the
present. He forgets the past and disre-
CARDS the future. Prospective rainy days
have no terrors for him. If he makes 81
today instead of his usual fifty cents, he
will not work tomorrow. There are four
preferences which are common to colored
men-linen busters, razors, chickens and
cathartic pills. To the country darky q
linen duster is the insignia of prosperity.
He generally gets it size or two too large
and has it well starched. He wears il as
often as he possibly can. Not long ago
an excursion, by water, OF colored people,
came here from over the bay. Nearly all
of them, women ms well as men, wore
linen busters. Just why nine negroes cut
Of ten carry razors cannot be explained,
but that they do carry them is a fact, and
in every free fight some one ALWAYS gets
slashed. At colored camp meeting held
few weeks ago this notice was conspicu-
ously posted:
Dinner, 25 cents; with chicken, so cents.
1t was the most eloquent kind of evil
dence as to the negro's appetite for this
fowl. The boarding tent keeper was a
man of experience, and although chicken
was very cheap in that section, he knew
that twenty-five cent dinner would not
pay for the chicken colored man could
eat. AS TO the pills, tho darkies are al
ways imagining themselves sick. They
know of but one remedy-pills.

DASHED TO DEATH.
Over 25O Persons Either Killed
Or Dangerously Hurt,
WITHOUT WARN l n G &.
THE DEAD IND INJURED ROBBED.

The most horrible and greatest railroad
accident ever described occurred on the
Illinois Central road near ChatSworth, ON
the night of the 10Th. There were over
900 people on the train excurtingto Ne7a-
da falls from Peoria and other towns along
the line. The train was composed Of six
sleeping cars, six passenger coaches and
a baggage car, drawn by two engines.
Two miles out from Chatsworth bridge
crossed deep and narrow raVine, and
when within hundred yards Of the
crossing the bridge was found to be on
fire, but owing to the great speed at which
they were going-a mile m'nute-a
stop could not be made under half mile,
and nothing could be done 10 avert the
appalling situation. The front engine
passed over in safety but broke loose from
its tender which, followed BY the rest OF
the train, went down with lightning
plunge into the rocky abyss, eztinguish-
ing about hundred lives and wounding
at least two hundred, dozens were piniOn-
ed in many different ways, unable to
move or know the extent Of the disaster. 1t
was at II o'clock, no light except that
from the smouldering bridge timbers by
which those unhurt could assist those
who were crying out for help in agonies
of death, pitiful and heart-rendirg.
About fifty heroic and thankful men set
about the work of arresting the flames
which threatened to take hold Of the
debris, by digging up the hard Dirt with
their hands, which they succeeded in do
ing after three h0urs' hard weTk. There
was no water in the ueieh60rhood. By
daylight help had arrived from every d.
rection. and the dead were soon laid out
in a eornfeld. the wounded c0mtorted as
best they could be, and those fastened in
the wreck extricated. In short time all
were removed by special train to Chats
worth where ell tho available buildings
were turned into hospitals and mo.Enes.
